Excellencies, distinguished guests, friends, Generation Equality fearless feminists of the world, do you want change? When do you want it?
This Forum is deliberately breaking up the ‘old normal’. I want to start by thanking those of us who are joining us in this ‘new normal’. In this Forum, we were joined by at least 10,000 women who registered formally or who followed us on other channels, including YouTube. Women and girls of all ages, racial identities and backgrounds from different regions of the world, brought their leadership and their realities to this virtual stage. This includes the artists who delighted us with music, with painting, with murals – we thank them all. The world has listened to you.
